Just a "me too" to echo Gabor's request for guidance for checking out
and using new drivers from HEAD.
In my case I'd like to try the new em(4) Jack's been talking about.
I've been running FreeBSD machines for several years, but this is the

list to seek recommendations for 1000Base-SX PCI NICs. I am looking
to run them on FreeBSD 8 and beyond, and I need support for MTU > 1500
